in 2011 the site was hacked and a lot of data was deleted. in 2018(?) there was a hardware failure and a small amount of data was lost. also things have been moved around and archived over the years.
Most likely this is what you're seeing. R00tw0rm destroyed a large number of posts back then. The hardware failure and rollback did remove a few posts, but nothing from prior to the rollback (though it did recalculate post counts, which was almost more noticeable). And things have been moved/archived, but I wouldn't expect reviews to have been affected by that. I'd say the main culprit here is R00tw0rm, especially considering the timing of your early posts. Sadly, the lost posts cannot be recovered and are gone forever. :-/
@junkfist, to answer your question about making BS posts, yes, we can fix the post count situation for you. I see no sense punishing a veteran member such as yourself and forcing you to make nonsense posts just to use Classifieds. You can go ahead and create a WTB post now.
